time to leave kabadi behind.........................
by bibin on Jan 26, 2007 11:22 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

there is no point in encouraging kabbadi....as it is not approved by international olympic federation and a game which is known in three countries only. i think we should give encouragement to athletics and gymnastics...where india is far behind.

u dont want to encourage kabbadi,is cricket is the only game to be encouraged though it is not our native game, already hockey is in shatters, and rediff can only publish the cricket stars and their autobiography etc??????, i would have been happy if they added the kabbadi winning team pic

gentlemen even cricket is also not recognised by internatinal olympic federation and played in only few contries where britishers ruled in past, no developed country like to play/develop cricket. We should proud that kabaddi is our own game and we have maintained our superemacy. In developed coutries like Japan, Malaysia,U.S.A.and even U.K & Austriala the game of kabaddi is becoming more and more popular. Congrates to INDIAN KABADDI TEAM

I would like to add CANADA too, where the police are trained in KABBADI and play match with the local indians there to gain confidence and support.

kabbadi is indias native game , it will grow only if we encourage it,

other games such as sepak takraw are local games which have now been recognised internationally , there is no reason why kabbadi will not grow if efforts are put in

lets congratulate our team on the stellar performance
